Tonight\u2019s game is a great chance for Soto to snap out of his slump with Nelson allowing 13 earned runs over his last three starts (15.2 IP) allowing four home runs during that span as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take Soto to hit a home run tonight at +360 with other Padres to look at for a home run include <strong>Gary Sanchez (+420)<\/strong> and <strong>Manny Machado (+360)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 11<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Join Drew Martin and a rotating panel of guests for First Pitch as we break down the daily baseball slate from a betting perspective every weekday at 1:45pm ET \/ 10:45am PT for First Pitch discussing the MLB betting slate.

Tonight\u2019s game is a great chance for Soto to snap out of his slump with Nelson allowing 13 earned runs over his last three starts (15.2 IP) allowing four home runs during that span as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Take Soto to hit a home run tonight at +360 with other Padres to look at for a home run include <strong>Gary Sanchez (+420)<\/strong> and <strong>Manny Machado (+360)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 11<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Join Drew Martin and a rotating panel of guests for First Pitch as we break down the daily baseball slate from a betting perspective every weekday at 1:45pm ET \/ 10:45am PT for First Pitch discussing the MLB betting slate.
